ASP.NET forum

[PeOfEo]

Hey, there is a growing number of people using ASP.NET around here and I was wondering if we could get a separate forum for it. ASP and ASP.NET are technologies with similar languages (vb vs. vbscript) but at the same time they are very different technologies and it gets confusing when people post asp.net stuff in the asp forum especially if they do not specify asp.net in the title of the post. How about an asp.net forum or maybe just a .net forum.

I think we've been over this one before... I doubt there'd be enough use for it to have it's own forum...

Well I dont know, If we had an ASP.NET or a .NET forum, more people that use that technology would come to these forums. There are atleast 10 to 15 active users here that use or are trying to learn ASP.NET. Also it is the newest technology right now and as companies make new sites and compainies make changes to old sites, I suspect we will start seeing them switching to ASP.NET and because of that more and more people will be heading this way with that technology on their mind. Its a young technology but it has many advantages of ASP classic and we all know that compainies are generally slow to make changes, but I am betting that many compainies will be making the jump from ASP classic to ASP.NET pretty soon.

lakers...you don't know asp. so how can you be "jumping" to asp.net?? hmm?

[PeOfEo]

Yes he can be, he can be jumping from php (which I guess he is still planning on learning) or just jumping to it as a new technology. Like I said above, asp and asp.net are very different technoledgies, I know asp.net but not asp.
